Product Description

SmartWool was founded in New Zealand. A group of Ski instructors were bothered with cold feet while being on the slopes for hours. Through research they learned that the New Zealand Merino was soft, strong and white. As a result, SmartWool was in business. The Merino wool keeps your feet warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather. And, these socks will not allow odor bacteria to build up in the fibers. These socks are wonderful for anyone who is active such as skiers, firefighters, professional athletes, hikers, runners, cyclists and climbers. The Ski Light Sock is very popular. And for those days that you need to be in the office - you can also enjoy the dress slack socks that are available.

Worth Every Penny!
I have owned these socks now for over 5 years. My first pair is a bit threadbare, but I wear them consistently. The moderate temperature like a gem, and I wear them both in winter and summer. I work in the vineyards and winery all day and the socks never feel hot and they stay dry all day. My wife saw that I loved them so much, she absconded with a new pair of mine, and then bought herself 4 pairs and then 4 more for her brother.

great soc's
These are the best socks for a long day at work. Great quality, great comfort.

SmartWool Socks are the best all year round!
I purchased my first pair of SmartWools (hiking style socks) years ago. They carry me through the coldest Midwest winters. But, this summer I purchased a few more pairs of SmartWools (short, golf-style socks) for my first trip to Africa (July/August). Combined with a great pair of supportive gym shoes, my SmartWools carried me through day hikes on the savannas of the Masa Mara, across airport fields, long game drives, and back home again. SmartWool Socks are the best choice for friction-free walking and absorbent materials that wick away moisture. Ironcially, they are not too warm to wear in the summertime, and best of all - they're not itchy! I highly recommend SmartWool socks (any variety of styles) for year-round, casual comfort!
